Where do they get these people?
- Hizonner 2y agoI'd like to request some comment replies from anybody who keeps up the downvoting on this one. I've found that every time I post something complaining about a "science journalist", or a "tech journalist", not having a basic understanding of the stuff they write about, or not doing meaningful research, I reliably get downvotes. Sorry, if you are reporting on a "science" beat, I do expect you to recognize the word "furan", because you either took organic chemistry or have paid some attention to the world around you. You don't have to be able to sketch it, but come on.
- h0l0cube 2y agoI didn't downvote, but I think—at least in this instance—if you were more specific about what you're criticizing, instead of just expressing generic outrage, you might not have been downvoted and might also have inspired a meaningful discussion.
